The Lady Detectives Reading Challenge

Found this one just now. Another mystery challenge, but this one focuses on female detectives. I read a lot of cozies with women as detectives, so this should be an easy one for me and I should be able to get at least 7 books. Sign up here.

Welcome to my very first reading challenge!!!! I’ve been participating in reading challenges for…. gosh probably 5-6 years. But when I was a kid I’d always join in on the summer reading challenges at my library. Reading’s always been a big part of my year.

After some deliberation, we figured out that there’s quite a few existing challenges for cozy mysteries, and while I enjoy cozies, that’s not the only kind of mysteries I read. However, the majority of my favorite mysteries are solved by ladies. Sure there’s room in my heart for Nero, Hercule, Sherlock, and KoKo… but I read so many more mysteries solved by the female detectives.

This runs from January 1st, 2016 to December 31st, 2016.

You can enter anytime between now & September 1st, 2016.

Rules

I’m keeping this pretty laidback. Wanna read ebooks? Cool. Wanna listen to audiobooks? Cool. Wanna read YA? Cool. So long as it matches the theme of a lady detective being one of the primary characters, I’m good with audio, digital, graphic, YA… whatever.

You do not have to blog about it. You do not have to leave reviews. You do not have to choose your books in advance. All that you’re required to do, is leave a comment below with what level you’re aiming for.
